New Patented Decking Solution

Premium FIBA-DEK System is a revolutionary composite product that utilises a new patented technology, which fuses two Fibre glass layers during the production process, within the co extruded wood composite material layers.

This patented technology enhances the rigidity, durability and toughness of the decking board to achieve better performance by significantly minimising the boards thermal movement at different temperatures. The graph below illustrates the thermal movement of Premium FIBA-DEK. These performance figures were generated from our factory testing results and show the superior minimal thermal movement of Premium FIBA-DEK. The results shown below might slightly vary depending on the external conditions.

Premium FIBA-DEK looks and feels like natural timber and is available in four colours with an embossed finish to aid in slip performance but also to create the beautiful surface expected in a premium quality timber decking .

Premium FIBA-DEK pre-finished boards are water, termite and fungus resistant with the added benefits of easy care and low maintenance.

Premium FIBA-DEK decking is perfect for rooftops, courtyards, walkways, Pool areas, Schools, Child Care, Aged Care, residential balconies and other public spaces.

Installation Tips and RequirementsINNOWOOD products can be worked with ordinary woodworking tools such as:

INNOWOOD boards should not be stored in the open or covered or wrapped with plastic sheet. INNOWOOD boards are a finished product, do not dump or drop when loading or unloading. Always handle with care.

INNOWOOD boards should be stored under cover and protected from the elements (including direct sunlight and rain) until ready to install. Remove any plastic wrap including shrink wrap and store on a dry and flat surface supported at max. 450mm centres.

When removing INNOWOOD boards from the pack, do not slide boards against each other, lift the boards and set them down carefully.

INNOWOOD boards should be carried on their edge for better support.

When handling INNOWOOD boards take care to avoid scratches, nicks and other damage to the boards.

•

•

•

•

NOTE:To ensure long- term performance, we recommend that a professional trade person carry out the installation. The installation MUST be carried out in accordance with these instructions including the use of all trims and accessories.

Thermal movementAny wood based products will expand and contract with changes in temperature. The amount of expansion varies according to the amount of change in temperature. Although thermal movements are reversible, these movements due to temperature change may vary by up to 1mm per meter on this Premium FIBA-DEK decking during the installation process. This might slightly vary depending on the external conditions.

INNOWOOD boards that have been exposed to direct sun for several hours, prior to installation will have expanded more than boards left in the shade. It is important to maintain an average consistent temperature for all boards as they are being installed.

Avoid installing in full sun if ambient temperature is above 30°C. However if this cannot be avoided ensure the boards are kept out of the sun until installed to limit the boards expansion prior to installation. Premium FIBA-DEK can tolerate a temperature range from -30°C to +80°C.

If the product is to be used in an environment outside of this temperature range, please consult INNOWOOD.

Please bear in mind that:

•

•

•

•

•

Where INNOWOOD boards are to be screw fixed, clearance holes must be pre-drilled before fixing (both INNOWOOD boards and accessories).

The clearance hole to be drilled must be slightly greater than the outside screw thread diameter.

Screws must be minimum 15mm but maximum 25mm away from board edges (unless noted otherwise)

INNOWOOD products must not be used for any structural purpose.

The cut surface must be sealed with a layer of protective coating such as a water based deck sealer before installation.

When exposed to direct sunlight, surface temperature may be significantly hotter than ambient temperature.

Design Considerations

Expansion/ Contraction - Premium FIBA-DEK boards will expand and contract slightly with changes in temperature. The maximum amount of expansion and contraction that may occur is 0.3-0.5mm per lineal metre of board. This should be taken into account when designing board layout.

For extreme temperatures, where the board temperature is above 80°C then please contact INNOWOOD for further details.

Screws

Screws must comply with AS 3566 Self Drilling Screws for the Building and Construction Industries.

Screws must have a minimum Class 3 corrosion resistance, suitable for external applications in mild, moderate industrial and marine environments and Class 4 or stainless steel for severe environments.

Screws with class 1 or 2 corrosion resistance may be used for internal use depending on the individual application.

Framing Construction Requirements

All building codes and Australian Standards must be adhered to when building the structural support framing for any deck. Be sure to consult with a licensed builder, architect or engineer prior to designing or building your deck to ensure the regulations are met for such criteria as the stress grades, size and spans of posts, bearers and joists and other structural elements. For specification and design of commercial or industrial applications refer to AS1170: Dead and Live Loads and Load Combinations.

Premium FIBA-DEK should be fixed to seasoned timber joists or to a proprietary structural system.

Joist spacing for Premium FIBA-DEK is nominally set at 400mm centres max for residential and 350mm centres max for commercial applications in urban and non- cyclonic wind load areas. For higher wind-load areas reducing joists may be required. All boards must span across a minimum of 3 joists.

As with all decking products the adequacy of a proposed installation should always be checked by a qualified engineer.

Joists must have a face not less than 45mm for timber and 38 mm for steel.

Additional joists must always be set between the 1st & 2nd joist at each end of deck. Where butt joints occur, framing must be “Blocked Out “ with 190 x 45mm timber blocks with 190mm face upwards.

Timber Framing

The joints between posts, bearers and joists need to be able to transfer load efficiently through the structure, refer to AS1684 for design of these elements.

It is important to use adequately seasoned timber to minimise shrinkage and associated building movement which may damage the decking system.

Steel FramingSteel framing must comply with AS/NZS 4600: Cold- Formed Steel Structure or AS 3623: Domestic Metal Framing.

Where steel framing members are specified, use only corrosion resistant galvanized steel framing.Specific instructions for fixing to steel frames are included where appropriate.

CONSTRUCTION ADHESIVE


18

As the FIBA-DEK decking is a finished product, it must be protected from scratches and marks during and after installation and from any other site construction activity.

We recommend the following during construction where possible:

• All foot traffic is avoided or limited to only clean footwear that is free from abrasive objects such as

dirt, sand, rocks, glass etc.

• If foot traffic cannot be avoided, then the deck should be swept clean to remove dirt and other

abrasive material and a breathable membrane cover be place over the deck but there must be

adequate ventilation between the covering and decking. Do not completely seal the covering to the

deck and if possible, the covering should be removed daily.

• Do not drag or place heavy items or construction materials on the deck.

We recommend the following during use:

• Always protect the deck from furniture legs etc by using protective pads such as self-adhesive pads.

• Sweep regularly to remove dirt, sand and other abrasive materials.

• Beware of rocks or glass that can be lodged in the soles of shoes that can cause significant

scratches.

• Never drag objects across the surface, always lift and set them back down.

• Hard plastic wheels on furniture or appliances can scratch if they are not pushed in the correct

direction.
